9 Simple Rules To Stay Healthy And Live Long

#6. Protect Yourself From Sexually Transmitted Infections

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), such as herpes, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia, are passed easily from one person to the next through sexual intercourse. STDs are more common in people under the
age of 50. But, if you or your partner have other sexual partners, you are at risk for STDs. You can lower
your chances of getting an STD by using a latex condom every time you have sex. If you have not
taken this step, you may need testing for STDs. Source: womenshealth.gov
